Release Date for Episode Four of ‘Batman: The Enemy Within’ Announced

Episode Three of Telltale’s Batman: The Enemy Within released back in November, just before Thanksgiving. Since then, we were simply left with nothing but our families and the holidays to tide us over. Fear no more, feverish Batgamers! This morning, Telltale Games sent out a press release regarding the release date of Episode Four, entitled “What Ails You.”

Check out the press release below:

Episode Four of Telltale’s ‘Batman: The Enemy Within’ Premieres January 23 Across All Platforms

Citizens of Gotham City,

Today we are excited to share the official release date for the fourth episode of Batman: The Enemy Within, the ongoing five-part episodic game series that continues Telltale’s unique take on the World’s Greatest Detective. Episode four, ‘What Ails You,’ launches Tuesday, January 23 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Mac, and mobile.

When the Pact puts its plan into motion, Bruce’s cover is finally blown, and as his web of lies unravels, new questions emerge: When and how will the Pact regroup? What’s truly motivating Amanda Waller and the Agency? And perhaps most importantly, how will John Doe handle the truth about his buddy Bruce? With another showdown brewing, the clown prince of crime may finally earn his crown…

Rendered to look like a living, breathing comic book, Telltale’s vision of Batman features an award-winning cast of talent including Troy Baker, who returns to reprise his role as Bruce Wayne, as well as Anthony Ingruber, who reprises his fresh take on ‘John Doe,’ better known to fans as The Joker.

This new season is intended to be accessible to both returning fans and newcomers alike, though players’ choices from the first season of Batman: The Telltale Series will optionally carry over into The Enemy Within. This season also includes Telltale’s unique multiplayer ‘Crowd Play’ feature, which allows friends and family to engage with the adventure together by helping to decide the direction of the story from any mobile device with an internet connection.

A special ‘Season Pass Disc’ for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 is currently available at retailers across North America and Europe. The disc includes the first episode of the season, as well as download access to all subsequent episodes as they are released.

Batman: The Enemy Within is a standalone product separate from the first season of Batman – The Telltale Series. Both products are licensed by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and based on DC’s iconic character. Episode four, ‘What Ails You,’ has been rated ‘Mature’ by the ESRB.

In exactly two weeks, you can get your hands on episode 4. That wasn’t too long of a wait, was it?
